    Awake

    Our text for this week is Ephesians 5:13-14:


    But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything

    Being the Light

    Our text for this week is Ephesians 5:11-12:


    And do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them; for it is disgraceful even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.


    Refusing to participate in deeds of darkness can be hard enough for Christians, but going to the next level and exposing them is a code of honor that very few have been able to live by. It is difficult to know where the line is between a

    Pleasing to the Lord

    Our text for this week is Ephesians 5:10:


    trying to learn what is pleasing to the Lord.


    This simple statement encompasses the highest and most noble purpose of man. There is nothing we can ever do that is more important, more powerful, more fruitful, and have a longer lasting impact on the world, than living our life so we please the Lord.

    There is a reason we are called human “beings” rather than human “doings.” Our highest calling is to be like Christ—not just do things for...

    Our text for this week is Ephesians 5:5-8:


    For this you know with certainty, that no immoral or impure person or covetous man, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

    Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

    The Power of Your Word

    Our text for this week is Ephesians 5:4:


    and there must be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.


    Jesus Himself is called “the Word.” He is the Communication from God. The Word of God has infinite value and power. Our words also have value and power to the degree that we have credibility and abide in the Lord. Therefore we should treat words with the utmost care, which is the reason for the exhortation of this
